As in both 2008 and 2009 the tour will be holding a filmmaking contest this year. Entrants stand to win a sponsors prize package, $500 and have their film featured in the 2010 Tour. Entries are due by July 20, 2010. Full details can be found by clicking here.

On a related note, the guys behind the RRFT are out in Bishop this week following Paul Robinson as he works on the Rasta Man Vibration Sit Start project at the Buttermilks. You can see some grainy footage from Paul’s efforts in 2008 here. Prana’s blog has some recent pictures of Paul’s efforts with a surprise cameo…

The REEL ROCK Film Tour is excited to announce the 2010 REEL ROCK Filmmaking competition.

Hit us with your best shot!

I like the coincidence that Sharma is there to help back Robinson’s likely send and grading of V15 or even V16. Seems like an opportunity to avoid some of the flack D. Woods got a little while ago for climbing strong and throwing out big numbers.
